Chapter 477

Li Hong also pretended to be regretful and sighed: "Yes, it's a pity! It would be great if we brothers could live in this Confucius Mansion for a few more days. Let the barbarians and scholars see that their Yansheng Gong Mansion was occupied by us."

Man Zhu Xili suddenly looked fierce: "Since we don't have the chance to live in it, then just burn it out! Our station wants those poor Hangou scholars to see, even their Yansheng Gong Mansion was burned out by us. Reading those shit books is useless! In this world, whoever has the biggest fist and who speaks is effective!"

Whoever has a big fist can speak is effective. At first, Li Hong taught Manzhu to Xili, but now Manzhu has used this sentence.

Manzhu Xili is such a good person. Every time Li Hong is sleepy, he always gives him a pillow. Li Hong himself couldn't say that he would burn the Confucius Mansion and Confucius Temple. If it was Huang Taiji's brother-in-law Manzhu Xili said it, it would be easy.

In real history, Manzhu Xili was a ignorant and ignorant man. He was not as colorful as his sister Dayue'er, and he almost never went through his brain. Li Hong even wondered whether Manzhu Xili's mind was not as good as Amin and Abatai, who were brave but not resourceful, but Manzhu Xili did not have Amin. Abatai's courage could be said to be a whip made of shit. He could not hear (text) and could not dance (martial).

Anyway, after returning to Liaodong, if Huang Taiji blamed the crime of killing Yan Shenggong, burning Yan Shenggong's Mansion, and burning Confucius Temple, he would naturally be pushed to Manzhu to practice rituals.

But it is best to let Manzhu Xili take on this responsibility by himself, so Li Hong said: "Manzhu Xili Anbo, your Korqin tribe is a large tribe, much more than our Tumote tribe. This time, he captured Qufu and seized so many gold, silver and treasures. Our Tumote tribe cannot use so much. Let's open 37, I'll be fine, you can get 70%."

Manzhu was overjoyed, but said politely: "Subudian, how can you do this? You have the greatest contribution to breaking Qufu. How can I get 70%? Even if we have many people in the Korqin tribe, we can only get 55% of them."

"No, you are the emperor's brother-in-law and the national uncle. I can't get more for this." Li Hong refused to share the 50% share because if Man Zhu Xili could get more, he would take the initiative to take the blame when he took the blame, because Man Zhu Xili knew that Huang Taiji would not punish him.

As for Li Hong himself, although he was Tumot Khan, Huang Taiji would definitely punish him severely if he made a big mistake. Not to mention anything else, even the Lord who cut off Tumot Khan was unacceptable to Li Hong. He, an undercover agent, became a great khan in order to better provide help to his elder brother and cause as much trouble as possible to the Qing Dynasty.

As an insider, Zhang Shuheng and others also received the reward from Manzhu Xili. The men in black were taken to the Qing army camp. Manzhu Xili was very happy to reward them with 5,000 taels of silver each, regardless of whether they could bring so much money.

The Qing army of the Eight Banners of Mongolia carried three thousand young men and women who had been plundered from Qufu and drove more than a thousand vehicles filled with a large amount of property and left Qufu. Before leaving, Manzhu set off a fire and burned both the Yanshenggong Mansion and the Confucius Temple. If the knife that cut off Yanshenggong Kong Yin planted the head before would have room for ease of ease of the relationship between the Qing Dynasty and the gentry, this fire would be completely impossible to ease.

After all, it can be said that Yan Shenggong was a loyal and martyr in the Ming Dynasty and would rather die than surrender, so he had to kill him. In the future, Dorgon could still let the traitors explain the matter. But this was a little more powerful, with ten fan Wencheng and ten Hong Chengchou, and he could not win over the gentry.

Because Wang Quan ran to Julu, he was setting up Julu defense. The head general of this Ming army was Wu Biao. Although he was just a Qianzheng, he brought more than 10,000 people. The two deputy generals under his command were Zhao Feng and Liu Zhu.

The personal guards in Qufu City, except for a few people retreating with Li Hong, remained in Qufu. They had already collected the IOU and Land Deeds from the Yansheng Gong Mansion. When Wang Quan's 10,000 troops arrived, some of them had already changed the military uniforms of the Ming army and handed over all the property to Wu Biao, who led the team in a clever way.

Wu Biao led his troops to Qufu. Before he could enter the city, he saw the fire in the city soaring into the sky. Seeing this, he shouted anxiously: "Brothers, the water is coming from the city! Come and enter the city to save people!"

The Ming army rushed into the city and saw that the most luxurious Yansheng Gong Mansion in the city had already ignited a raging fire, and the Confucius Temple beside it had already shot into the sky. Wu Biao immediately brought people to the fire extinguishing work. During this period, he pretended to cry a few times: "Yansheng Gong, I'm late to be a humble job!"

When the Ming army arrived in Qufu, the people in the city understood that the Tartars who had just robbed the city had suddenly ran away. They must have heard the news of the arrival of the Ming army. These people were naturally very grateful to the Ming army.

"Where is the Lord Yan Sheng?" Wu Biao asked the people in the city to ask.

Among the people who were called, some were tenants of Yan Shenggong. When the Ming army officer asked, the tenants immediately burst into tears: "Yan Shenggong's family was killed by the dog Tartars!"

"Why did the Tartars kill Yan Shenggong?" Wu Biao continued to ask.

A man with a scholar-like appearance said: "Donald Yan Sheng led the people in the city to resist to the end, causing heavy casualties and injuries to the Tartars who attacked the city. After the city was broken, Duke Yan Sheng would rather die than surrender, and then he was killed."

But Zhang Shuheng, who disguised himself as a commoner, sneered on the side: "How did the Caomin see with his own eyes? After the city was broken, Duke Yansheng took the initiative to open the door to surrender to the Tartars? He also knelt in front of the Tartars and begged hard. It was the Tartars who hated scholars all over the world, so he killed Duke Yansheng."

The scholar's face turned red and pointed at Zhang Shuheng, "Yan Shenggong is the descendant of Confucius and a saint. How can he surrender to the enemy? Don't swear blood!"

"The saints will not surrender? Didn't Yan Shenggong first vote in the Jin Kingdom and then the Mongol Yuan? When the Song Dynasty was destroyed, all the cultural relics ministers all committed suicide by dying for their country. Why did Yan Shenggong accept the title of Kublai Khan and become the imperial teacher of the pseudo-emperor of the Mongol Yuan?"

The scholar was so angry that he couldn't speak. He ignored his image and pointed at Zhang Shuheng and cursed: "You can't just slander the saint!"

"I can also testify that Yan Shenggong did surrender to the Tartars!" A scholar-like man stood up and said, "He is no longer worthy of being Yan Shenggong. The court should grant Nanzong the title of Yan Shenggong."

In fact, the scholar who testified was also Li Guodong's family. His home was destroyed by thieves. If he hadn't met Wang Quan's caravan, he would have been eaten by the hungry people as two-legged sheep. So this scholar with scholarship also joined the caravan and later became a personal guard agent.

More and more people came forward to testify, not only Li Guodong's agents, but also some local people also stood up to testify. After all, it was too embarrassing to surrender to the enemy. Some ordinary people could no longer bear it, so they chose to stand on Zhang Shuheng's side and testify for the Yansheng's surrender to the enemy.

Finally, Wu Biao spoke: "Although Yan Shenggong surrendered to the Tartars, he still died at the hands of the Tartars. We can't count whether Yan Shenggong is a loyal and martyr in the Ming Dynasty or not, and it should be decided by the court. However, Yan Shenggong's family was killed by the Tartars. Even if he was a loyal and martyr in the Ming Dynasty, the court could only reward Nanzong as the new Yan Shenggong."
